"I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles" (Isaiah 42:6)

“THY SERVANT” in the Book of Psalms – A Prophecy About Mr. Gerald Flurry

On August 4, 2016, exitsupportnetwork.com posted a testimony of a former member of the Philadelphia Church of God, Brett Streutker, regarding the new no-contact policy that is now being implemented by the Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) in the North-East region of the US. Here’s the full account of Mr. Streutker from their post.

New No-Contact Ruling From Gerald Flurry

By Brett Streutker (real name used with permission)
August 4, 2016
Updated August 10, 2016

A brand new ruling sent down from King Flurry was announced last Sabbath (July 16, 2016). Gerald Flurry, in his “omnipotent wisdom,” has ruled that now all contact with unbaptized children who have left the PCG is to be terminated immediately.

It has been the policy for years that parents were still allowed to talk to children who have left the PCG only if they were unbaptized. Now Pope flurry has even taken away that small mercy.

The talk amongst the children now affected by this judgment is that this will push many PCG families over the edge and force them to leave or get put out. Others feel that this will put one more nail in the coffin of Flurryism. Flurry is looking more and more like “mad King George” as his actions are ruining the PCG. All of his egomaniacal pipe dreams have come to nothing. The dig in Jerusalem has failed. The PCG radio station broadcast from the Edmond compound has failed. Membership has plummeted since the late 90s and there is almost no growth. Some wonder that in the end all that will be left is a small “Jonestown faithful” secluded on the Edmond compound.

Since I wrote the above, it has now come to my attention that Gerald Flurry, in addition to the recent no-contact ruling against non-baptized children who refused to attend the PCG, has now also included non-baptized spouses of PCG members. This new PCG policy is being implemented under the radar by regional directors Cal Culpepper and Fred Dattolo. This ruling affects those non-baptized spouses who have been attending services regularly with their baptized PCG mates and then stop attending. In other words, they attended for a period of time but have decided not to anymore. The reasoning apparently given is that those non-baptized mates are held responsible for the “truth” and “new revelation” they have heard from the PCG. Cal Culpepper quotes HWA’s old saying that the “truth” you hear at the mouth of the Prophet/Apostle (Flurry) is “dangerous knowledge” and these non-baptized mates will be held to a higher standard. I have been told by one lady whose sister was put out that Culpepper said “this comes straight from the Prophet.” So Flurry is given the green light for these marriages to be dissolved at the request of the regional directors.

It was the general rule for years (even in the WCG) that non-baptized spouses of PCG members were allowed to continue a marital relationship with a non-member spouse if that said spouse was “pleased to dwell with them” (1 Corinthian 7:13). Apparently, Flurry’s theological rationale behind this new ruling is that by separating from “unbelievers” the faithful PCG member will keep from being “spiritually defiled” by the unbaptized spouse or child.

In casting out these non-baptized family members, the faithful PCG member will be doing these people a spiritual favor. These abandoned loved ones will have to suffer all the torments of the Tribulation–starvation, torture, rape, cannibalism, plagues–which will supposedly in the end cause these people to repent and finally accept “God’s Loving Family Government.” I have heard Dennis Leap in a sermon say, “Either you will learn to obey Government in the PCG, or you will learn it in the Tribulation at the butt end of a German Rifle.” Gerald Flurry in his PCG booklet on the biblical book of Lamentations writes that even the young children of the Laodiceans will be forcibly taken from their parents to be sold as sex slaves by the Germans. All of this is apparently done “in Love” by God to make people see the error of their ways.

This ruling affects those non-baptized spouses who have been attending services regularly with their baptized PCG mates and then stop attending. In other words they attended for a period of time but have decided not to anymore. The reasoning apparently given is that those non-baptized mates are held responsible for the “truth” and “new revelation” they have heard from the PCG. Culpepper quotes HWAs old saying that the “truth” you hear at the mouth of the Prophet/apostle Flurry is “dangerous knowledge” and these non-baptized mates will be held to a higher standard. I have been told by one lady whose sister was put out that Culpepper said “this comes straight from the Prophet”. So Flurry is given the green light for these marriages to be dissolved at the request of the regional directors.

Recently, I was surprised to receive a call from a good friend from my PCG days whose name is Cassie Flory. Cassie, who was baptized, was married to Scott Flory.1 I was very fond of Scott and Cassie and when I first came into the PCG I would fellowship with them often. We would have meals after services, and I even stayed at their house from time to time. Scott, as I recall, was a very devoted husband and father. I never saw him mistreat his wife and kids in any way. He worked hard to provide for his family and his wife and his kids never lacked anything. In all actuality, I envied them because at that time I was single and living alone. Cassie told me that her marriage to Scott was, for all practical purposes, dissolved by the Regional Director of the North East PCG–Cal Culpepper. She said they both were cast out (“suspended”) from the PCG a few years ago under the direct orders from Cal Culpepper for certain offenses that Culpepper found unacceptable.

Scott apparently pined away faithfully during all the time of their suspension and was waiting for that special phone call from Culpepper that would allow them to return to the “church.” Well, some time ago, he got the green light from Culpepper to return. However Scott was faced with a dilemma. The condition of his return to the PCG was that he had to turn out his wife Cassie and no longer allow her to live with him. When Scott told Cassie that he was allowed back in PCG, she said, “What about me?” He told her to leave his house ASAP. Cassie told me that she had nowhere to go!! She packed some of her belongings and lived for a while with various friends. She finally found her own place and is trying to rebuild her life, but is now living without the man she loved and was married to for over 10 years. All of this on the direct orders from the demonized Cal Culpeper.

This couple has two children, a boy and a girl. They are both grown young people and, from what I understand, do not attend the PCG any longer. So it seems that my once good friend Scott who I always remembered as a loving husband has–at the behest of Culpepper and for the sake of saving his skin from the Tribulation–lost his wife and children. As a consequence of this new policy from Flurry, he will (in his own mind) never see his family again unless they repent under torture from the Beast power and be “martyred for the faith.” Then they will all be happily united in HWA’s “World Tomorrow.” My question is this: What kind of poisonous spiritual Kool Aid is Gerald Flurry forcing his followers to drink that would turn a loving husband and father into something like this?

This news was later picked up by armstrongismlibrary.blogspot.com and spread like wild fire both in the off- and online world.

PEOPLES’ REACTION

Members and ex-members of the PCG were once again alarmed by this already stringent policy which has become even worse. This revised ruling has already impelled some members to exit the PCG.

This disturbing news from the PCG solicited heaps of negative feedbacks from former members of this church and other anti-Armstrong groups.

Here are a few of the negative reactions on this revised no-contact policy.

GF Doesn’t Want it to Come Back on Him:

August 9, 2016

Thanks a lot for all your new information. Be guaranteed that Flurry is having others, like Dattolo and Culpepper doing this. If a big enough “hit” comes, GF [OR GERALD FLURRY] can say, “Hey, it never came from me!” –Impacted by loved one in PCG

Flurry Wants to Appear as a Reasonable Leader:

August 9, 2016

I agree totally [see previous letter]. I remember when Aaron Eagle went to Flurry to outline the abuses of Culpepper, Flurry announced in a sermon that Cal Culpepper was “open to correction.” I am sure as obsessed with “government” as they are that Culpepper does not make any move without deferring to Edmond [HQ] so any correction that Flurry dishes out is merely a political move to appear as a reasonable leader to the membership. –Brett Streutker

Notice that Mr. Gerald Flurry is bearing the reproaches of people against this policy. Many have been storming him for issuing out this ruling which has been in effect for more than 3 years now.

People could not take the harshness of the original no-contact policy which resulted in suicides and brought misery to many families. And now, with the release of this revised edict, it made matters worse for members in the PCG and their families.

But, what is the real story behind this revised ruling? From whom was the change in the policy truly came from? Was it really Mr. Gerald Flurry’s decision to make it more burdensome for members?

Cal Culpepper, based on Mr. Streutker’s testimony, confirmed that “this [revised policy] comes straight from the Prophet.” For this reason, the masses will definitely think that this modified ruling originated from him.

But there was something odd in the manner by which this information was sent out to all PCG congregations around the world. Surprisingly, this revised policy did not come as an official announcement on CD. This was confirmed by Mr. Streutker in his communication with exitsupportnetwork.com last August 9, 2016.

New No-Contact Ruling Being Implemented by Culpepper and Dattolo:

August 9, 2016

The ruling on non-baptized members did not come from an official announcement on tape to all members. This policy is being implemented under the radar by regional directors Cal Culpepper and Fred Dattolo. … –Brett Streutker (NOTE: The rest of this letter was inserted into the testimony on 8-9-16: New No-Contact Ruling From Gerald Flurry)

Church policies, especially of this kind, whether new or altered, are normally being announced in all congregations and quite often with corresponding reason and explanation conveyed through a sermon coming from the Pastor General, Mr. Gerald Flurry. But many are wondering why this revised ruling did not come as an official announcement?

For the sake of argument, let’s suppose that this revised edict really came from the Pastor General.

Mr. Gerald Flurry, just like any other human leader of an organization, makes decisions or judgments based on the information being provided to him. In the case of this modified policy, he might have based his decision from the information sent to him by his son, Stephen Flurry or from other top rank ministers in the PCG.

We are aware that Stephen Flurry and all the other PCG ministers around the world could not control the outflow of information from within the walls of the PCG.

They could not clamped down family members who used to attend services in the church and stopped attending but are still living with an active member or members of the PCG. They could not control them from dispensing information to others.

Without a doubt, this is the primary reason why they now decide to include non-baptized children and spouses in this altered policy.

Is Mr. Gerald Flurry aware of what’s really going on? Does he have the whole picture? Does he know the effects and the many negative reactions of people against this policy?

Mr. Gerald Flurry is unskilled in computers. He is unaccustomed in using computer apps. No doubt, he does not read news and postings in blogs and social media. Naturally, he is not aware of the articles and comments of people in exitsupportnetwork.com or armstrongismlibrary.blogspot.com websites.

He does not fully know what is going on. What he knows is confined to the information provided him.

He was probably told about some information leakage coming from the PCG which their critics use against them in the online world and therefore they must employ a stricter policy for the members.

Thus, Mr. Gerald Flurry has agreed on the changes in the no-contact policy based on these inputs.

His action may have been just a reaction to what is being fed to him by his son, Stephen and his confederates because they could not control the flow of information about what is happening inside the PCG.

And so, his name is dragged into this whole mess. And the blame is placed on him. His image is continually being tainted and ruined.

THY SERVANT

In many of the Psalms written by King David, he mentioned about a certain servant whom he dubbed as “thy servant” in the King James translation of the Bible, or “your servant” in modern Bible translations.

Who is this man called “thy servant” being referred to by King David?

Most church leaders, theologians, bible scholars and students attribute the phrase, “thy servant” to King David himself because He was the servant of God – being the king over all Israel during his time.

Since most of the words spoken of by “thy servant” are included in chapters with King David’s name in the title or the superscription at the head of those Psalms, they ascribed to him the many experiences, sentiments, and feelings expressed by this figure.

Many just casually mention thy servant in their books, articles, and sermons unaware that this label applies to a very notable individual in this end-time.

What many don’t see is that King David was a prophet and the Psalms he wrote are primarily prophecies for God’s own church in this end-time.

Who is this very important personality being spoken of by King David in the pages of the book of Psalms? Who is this central figure in most of his prophecies?

The phrase, “Thy servant” refers to none other than Mr. Gerald Flurry – the Pastor General of The Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) and God’s Messenger or Servant to the Seventh and Final Era of God’s Church, The Laodicean Era.

All chapters in the book of Psalms that talk about “thy servant” or have reference to this phrase are pertaining to Mr. Gerald Flurry.

These prophecies show us what’s on the mind of Mr. Gerald Flurry, what he feels about what’s happening inside God’s church, his frame of mind, his wishes, and his hopes for the future.

All of these are echoed in King David’s words in the book of Psalms.

In a Terrible and Destitute State

What’s worrying is that in just about all the chapters which have citation of thy servant, they illustrate Mr. Gerald Flurry’s dismal and helpless state in this present time.

Here are a few passages showing his prevailing condition.

And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily. Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies. Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee. (Psalms 69:17-19)

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.(Psalms 27:7-14)

In Deep Mire

The helpless state of God’s Messenger for this last era is also shown in the 69th chapter of the book of Psalms.

I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. (Psalms 69:2-3)

Thy servant, in this verse, shows his desperate condition inside God’s own church. He is sinking in a deep mire or soft mud and could not extricate himself from it. He could not stand on solid ground anymore. His feet have nothing to rest on. And he has reached “the depth of waters” (Margin) where he could not touch the extremity of it.

He is drowning!

The waters have overflowed him. He is crying out to God, “Father, please save me! I’m in deep trouble. My life is in grave danger. ”

He may not appear this way in public but this shows us how he feels inside, how he sees himself – in a deep mud, helpless, drowning.

He is already exhausted calling upon God for help.

He’s been beseeching God’s help for a long period of time already. He’s been weary. And calling upon God incessantly has already dried or inflamed his voice. His eyes are failing too. He could not see clearly anymore. He could not devise any solution to this peril that is threatening his life.

He is looking to God alone.

He is depending only on Him and continually seeking help from Him.

But who is causing him all these troubles?

THE ADVERSARIES

We know that Mr. Gerald Flurry has many enemies in the world attacking him repeatedly. They are out to destroy him. These enemies include those people who lambast him in armstrongismlibrary.blogspot.com and exitsupportnetwork.com who think they know more than God’s Apostle.

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away. (Psalms 69:4)

These people who detest him are “without a cause” or devoid of reason or advantage. They attack him at liberty for nothing or in vain.

Why devoid of advantage? Their continuous attack on him will not make the PCG members leave God’s church and join these anti-Armstrong group. It will not be to their benefit or gain.

The Bible speaks of these people who detest him as devoid of reason or advantage. This explicitly shows that they are instruments of Satan who attack other people just for the sake of attacking.

They repeatedly criticize just about all the Church of God groups (COGs) out there.

Do these people truly care about those who get kicked out of the PCG and other COGs? Absolutely not!

But there is another set of enemies shown in this passage whom he describes as mighty. These are his enemies within the PCG – in his own realm. The meaning of the Hebrew root word for wrongfully shows that these enemies of Mr. Gerald Flurry are cheaters and liars. They are dealing with him falsely.

“Thy servant” expresses in this verse that he restored something. What did he restore in God’s church in this end-time?

We know that the end-time Elijah, Mr. Herbert Armstrong restored God’s government in the Church. When he died in 1986, Mr. Joseph Tkach and his men took over and remove God out of the picture. They rejected God’s government.

In the beginning of the Laodicean era, Mr. Gerald Flurry, once again, restored God’s government in the Church and placed back God and Jesus Christ on top. He continued to build on the foundation laid by Mr. Armstrong. He brought back the glory to God which was taken away by the Tkaches and their men.

Mr. Gerald Flurry restored God’s government in the PCG!

Notice that what he restored in God’s church, he did not take away but somebody else did!

So, who took away the government of God which Mr. Gerald Flurry had restored in God’s church? Who has again robbed God of His glory?

Who are those robbers who took away what he restored?

Here is what Mr. Gerald Flurry wrote in his booklet entitled, “God’s Family Government,” 2001 Version. (emphasis mine in bold)

“Here is what Mr. Armstrong said at a WCG ministerial conference, May 17, 1976: “[The] government of God is the whole thing—and it had better be in our lives!” WE MUST LET CHRIST PUT HIS SUBMISSION—HIS FAITH—INTO US! This is vital for godly character. We must let Christ rule us. He won’t force us to submit. Only childlike submission makes it possible. We must deeply desire to let Christ rule us—nothing must stand in the way.

Christ came to Earth for two reasons: TO RESTORE GOD’S GOVERNMENT AND TO SAVE MEN. First, God’s government must be established. That is why we are called now. We are being prepared to govern the world with Christ. Then God can build godly character in men and save them.

At the 1972 Feast of Tabernacles in Spokane, Washington, Mr. Armstrong said, “Government is the most important [issue] to God and in His mind. And it should be in ours!” Yet EVERY EVANGELIST and PASTOR-RANK MINISTER ALIVE TODAY that Mr. Armstrong trained has REJECTED THAT GOVERNMENT! Almost all the ministry and the Church he founded has rejected the government of God! After all those years, THEY STILL DIDN’T LEARN THE LESSON OF GOVERNMENT! That is always the big issue.”

And history keeps on repeating.

Today, the same case has happened again to God’s church, the PCG, in this Laodicean era. All the ministers in God’s church has rejected the government of God.

God’s Apostle, Mr. Gerald Flurry is the only person left who still upholds God’s government. But the rest of the ministers and members, THEY STILL DIDN’T LEARN THE LESSON OF GOVERNMENT! They didn’t allow Jesus Christ to rule them. Instead, the members allowed their own ministers to rule over them. And the ministers have taken Jesus Christ’s rulership over the people. They have taken His glory!

The PCG ministers have conspired, with Stephen Flurry as their head, to bring about a complete takeover of the entire Church’s work from Mr. Gerald Flurry.

They have taken the whole Church in captivity now. They have drawn the members to themselves. In the process, they have robbed God and Jesus Christ! The Almighty Father and His Son are once again pushed out of His own church.

They have, once again, rejected God’s government!

This is again, as always, the big issue!

IN BONDS

Thy Servant is in a helpless state. He could not do anything. The PCG ministers have put bands on God’s Apostle as indicated in the 3rd chapter of Ezekiel.

But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them: And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house. (Ezekiel 3:25-26)

Bands are like a cord, or rope, or chain. We have shown in many of our articles that the PCG has become a prison house. And Mr. Gerald Flurry has been in bondage for years now. Those ministers have put a chain or rope on him and bind him with them that he could not extricate himself from them – he’s in deep mire as earlier mentioned. Moreover, he could not remedy the situation and reprove these men. God has allowed this to happen to him.

Look at one of the major reasons why those ministers bind Mr. Gerald Flurry with them.

For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me. (Psalms 69:9)

In Strong’s Concordance, the word zeal means jealousy or envy.

Verse 9 translates to “for the jealousy or envy of your house.” The house refers to God’s church.

The ministers are envious of Mr. Gerald Flurry’s position, wealth, and influence in God’s church. For this reason, those evil men have devoured him.

Moreover, the reproaches of people hurled at the PCG have fallen into his lap. People will naturally put the blame on him, being the leader of the church. And so, he bears all the negative criticisms thrown at the church.

Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries areall before thee. Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none. (Psalms 69:19-20)

As expected, Mr. Flurry would certainly look for people who would empathize with him, be sensitive to his feeling, and feel sorry for what is going on.

But there was no one!

There was nobody comforting him. What a very sad situation.

A STRANGER, AN ALIEN

Notice how Mr. Gerald Flurry is being regarded now by the members of the PCG.

He has become a stranger to God’s own people and an alien to other COGs. What primarily is the cause of this? This is because of the no-contact policy.

People have been asking why he has allowed this no-contact policy to continue despite of the many negative effects it has brought the members and the church as a whole. They are wondering why he would implement such a policy which has caused suicides, dissolution of marriages, and broken families.

But, unknown to many people, those wicked ministers in God’s church has surrounded Mr. Gerald Flurry. Did you know that even within God’s own church, there is a no-contact policy being implemented by the PCG ministers for the Pastor General? Those wicked PCG ministers enclosing Mr. Gerald Flurry forbid other members from coming close to him or fellowshipping with him. Truly, he has become a stranger even to his own brethren.

A CONTRAST FROM EARLIER DAYS

All these terrible ordeal that he’s enduring now was not the case during the earlier days of his apostleship.

Let’s look at the colossal transformation from his former splendid situation to the awful state that he is in now.

The book of Job is another book that prophesies about what has happened to God’s Apostle in the last era of His church. It also gives us an insight about the inner thoughts and mindset of Mr. Gerald Flurry. It also shows the intense suffering he is going through in this end-time.

The 29th chapter of this book shows us the earlier condition of “Thy Servant.”

Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me; When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked throughdarkness; As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle; When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me; When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil; (Job 29:2-6)

During the earlier days or “in months past,” God’s revelation were continuously pouring out on him. God’s revelations were used to be in his tent or in the PCG. There were so many revelations.

But now, there’s no more.

It was reported in exitsupportnetwork.com that Mr. Gerald Flurry came out with a new revelation last Feast of Pentecost regarding the book of Ruth.

Gerald Flurry’s New Revelation on the Book of Ruth?

July 5, 2016

The “new revelation” by Gerald Flurry [given in his Pentecost sermon] was that Ruth was an Israelite and not a Moabite. It is so obvious that this is the exact opposite of Scripture. [Ruth 1:4, 22; 2:21; 4:5, 10] Apparently, the PCG is planning another musical based on the Book of Ruth. Those who put on these money-making musicals are very valuable to Gerald Flurry. –Anonymous

Mr. Gerald Flurry declared in his sermon that Ruth was an Israelite and not a Moabitess. According to the source he used, Ruth was considered a Moabitess geographically.

We know exactly that this is untrue because the Scriptures explicitly says that Ruth was a Moabitess.

So, despite of what the Bible says that Ruth was a Moabitess, the Philadelphia Church of God now claims that she was an Israelite.

They claim that this a new revelation from God but it is a blatant lie because the source of their so called “new revelation” are the many articles written by men without God’s Holy Spirit. You will find a proliferation of those articles in the internet. So the internet has become the PCG’s source of revelations and not really God as they claim.

But what does the Bible really says about Ruth’s racial roots?

The Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge (TSK), Clarke Commentary, Gill Commentary, etc. all cited the Targum (ancient paraphrases of the Hebrew Scriptures) with the following rephrased words:

“THEY [referring to Mahlon and Chilion] TRANSGRESSED THE DECREE OF THE WORD OF THE LORD, AND TOOK TO THEM STRANGE WOMEN.”

This is in reference to the phrase “they took” in Ruth 1:4,

And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years. (Ruth 1:4)

If they say that Ruth was only geographically a Moabitess, then how did Mahlon and his younger brother Chilion who married Orpah, transgress God’s law?

Ruth and Orpah were introduced in the bible as “women of Moab” or Moabitess. In the Scriptures, people are often described based on their ancestry. The Bible will not label Ruth and Orpah as Moabitess if they were not legitimate descendants of Moab.

Moreover, consider Ruth’s reply to Naomi in Ruth 1:16-17.

“But Ruth answered, “Stop urging me to abandon you and to turn back from following you. Because wherever you go, I’ll go. Wherever you live, I’ll live. YOUR PEOPLE WILL BE MY PEOPLE, AND YOUR GOD, MY GOD. Where you die, I’ll die and be buried. May the LORD do this to me—and more—if anything except death comes between you and me.” (Ruth 1:16-17, ISV)

Ruth could not have said “YOUR PEOPLE WILL BE MY PEOPLE, AND YOUR GOD, MY GOD” if she was an Israelite. Instead, she could have just said, “I’M ONE OF YOUR PEOPLE. I’m also an Israelite. So don’t worry, Naomi, I ALSO WORSHIP YOUR GOD.

We must not overlook the vital lesson God wanted to impart in this story. Ruth was a Gentile that became a converted Israelite and God is being glorified in that. This was even reinforced by the apostle Paul who wrote in Romans 2:28-29 “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and CIRCUMCISION IS THAT OF THE HEART, IN THE SPIRIT AND NOT IN THE LETTER; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”

Those wicked ministers surrounding Mr. Gerald Flurry are to be blamed for this. As mentioned earlier, Mr. Gerald Flurry is unskilled in the use of computers. Therefore, someone just handed him an article explaining that Ruth was an Israelite. And so, Mr. Gerald Flurry used a source coming from the Internet and the members considered this as new revelation.

But the reality is, God’s candle is not shining anymore upon his head (Job 29:3). God has been withholding His secrets from him in this present time. The pouring out of rain has stopped.

” And the rock poured me out rivers of oil”

Jesus Christ used to give him an abundance of revelations. It was flowing in overwhelming quantities. But now, Jesus Christ has to hold back the stream of oil from him.

What seems very strange is the fact that in recent months, Mr. Gerald Flurry, a couple of times, requested the brethren to pray for God’s guidance on what the next phase of the work will be.

These incidents substantiate that Jesus Christ is withholding the flow of oil from God’s servant.

It is an indication of blindness on his part. It shows that there is no more vision in him. There is no more light. He is now groping in the dark.

There is no more revelations. No more downpour of rain.

But God has an important reason for doing this.

Why is God withholding His revelations from him today? Why is there no more rain?

It is because of what his son, Stephen and his confederates have done. They have taken control of God’s church. They robbed the office of “thy servant” and placed themselves at the helm. Mr. Gerald Flurry could not do anything about it. And so, he is seeking God for help.

A CALL FOR GOD’S DELIVERANCE

The opening verse of the 69th chapter of the book of Psalms shows the great importance and urgency of trumpeting this message to all the people in the Philadelphia Church of God.

To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, A Psalm of David. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul. (Psalms 69:1)

That’s why in this Psalm, the chief musician is playing this music upon Shoshannim. The word Shoshannim means a trumpet. Thus, this message must be proclaimed to them.

This verse shows Mr. Gerald Flurry’s call for God’s deliverance which is also expressed in verses 14 & 15.

Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters. Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. (Psalms 69:14-15)

He repeats here his desperate situation – sinking in a deep mire. But we see in these verses, that this deep mire is symbolic of his enemies – people who hate him inside God’s church. These are the same ministers who put a chain on him so that he’s unable to disentangle himself from them. (Ezekiel 3:25). These wicked men are described as stationed in an abyss or a pit.

Mr. Gerald Flurry has allowed his son, Stephen, to manage God’s work. And so, Stephen just do whatever he sets his mind on. It was Stephen’s decision to move to England from Jerusalem. Mr. Gerald Flurry just give the go-ahead to Stephen’s plan and not to where God wants to lead His work. The building programs, the plan to acquire a private jet, the revised no-contact policy were all Stephen’s idea.

Moreover, he agreed to the many pagan practices which were introduced to the church by Stephen and his collaborators such as Irish dancing, Mother’s Day, and the practice of cremation.

Mr. Gerald Flurry knew that he has committed all these sins and foolishness. And so, he repented and pleads to God for His mercy and help.

This is further shown in the renowned chapter of Psalms, chapter 119 – the giant among the psalms with 176 verses, and the longest chapter in the whole Bible.

A prominent theme of Psalms 119 is about persecution or opposition by men, and affliction. This psalm shows the sufferings, sorrows, and pain being experienced by “Thy servant.” But it also expresses Thy Servant’s dedication or loyalty to the God’s law and his love for God’s words.

“I know, O Lord, that your rules are righteous, and that in faithfulness you have afflicted me” (v. 75), or “If your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction” (v. 92).

What is quite striking about this particular psalm is how it was concluded.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments. (Psalms 119:176)

This chapter ends with thy servant appealing to God to seek him for he has strayed. This shows Mr. Gerald Flurry’s admission of his faults. He confesses that he wandered away like a lost sheep. And so, he appeals to God, our Supreme Shepherd, to seek him in order to bring him back to His fold. Mr. Gerald Flurry is seeking God’s deliverance.

DEATH AND HELL

But who primarily brought him to this predicament? Notice a very revealing verse in Psalms 116. This verse is a very crucial passage because it shows Mr. Gerald Flurry’s disclosure of who exactly are the men responsible for bringing him all these troubles.

The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. (Psalms 116:3)

“What an expression!” is what Barnes Commentary remarked about this verse. Barnes Commentarycontinued, “We know of no intense sorrows pertaining to this world than those we associate with the dying struggle …”

Barnes Commentary is saying that there exist no such sorrows associated with death but only when dying. Because, when you’re dead, you’re dead. You don’t feel anything at all. There is no more feeling of sorrow.

Well, this passage is not really about the feeling of sorrow when dying because this verse is expressed in figurative language.

Strong’s Concordance defines the word sorrows as a rope (as twisted). Figuratively, it means a company (as if tied together). Other meanings include: band, cord. Hence, we can rephrase the expression “The sorrows of death compassed me.” to:

“The rope or cord of death compassed me.”

Or,

“The band or company of death compassed me.”

Observe very carefully that the word death is a metaphor for an evil person or individual. Death has a rope binding Mr. Gerald Flurry. He has a band or a company encompassing him!

Now, notice the next expression, “and the pains of hell gat hold upon me.” The phrase “gat hold upon me” means “found me.”

Observe also that the word hell is another metaphor for another evil person in this imagery. Hence, there are two individuals involved in bringing sorrows and troubles to “thy servant.”

The word hell means Sheol – Hades. It refers to the grave.

The pains that hell brings will cause a person to be brought to the grave or die. This means that his work brings forth ruin!

Mr. Gerald Flurry do not see these men as evil people but the effect of what they are doing will be obvious to him.

It is “the pains” or “the troubles” – the effect or the result of what hell is doing which got hold of Mr. Gerald Flurry.

Death and Hell are two individuals who are enclosing Mr. Gerald Flurry and bringing sorrows and pains to him.

The verse concludes with “I found trouble and sorrow.” He discovered these two wicked individuals via the effects of what they are doing!

Mr. Gerald Flurry has found Death and Hell – the two evil men who are responsible for bringing troubles and sorrows to him and to the whole Church!

Who are these two individuals?

But first, let’s notice thy servant’s immediate reaction when he found Death and Hell.

Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. (Psalms 116:4)

When “Thy Servant” found out about Death and Hell and the effect of their works, he realized that he’s helpless and therefore seek out the help of the living God.

He could not do anything.

Mr. Gerald Flurry is standing helplessly and cannot do anything to these two wicked persons that he is seeking the help of the living God.

Who is Death and Hell?

THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE

Notice that these same guys are mentioned as riders in the fourth seal or the fourth horseman of the well-known Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

These riders rode their horses and set out to bring about great suffering, destruction, and conquest of God’s church on the road to the Great Tribulation.

Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field. For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there wasno shepherd. Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle. Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together. And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the LORD is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded. And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the LORD their God, and will hear them. (Zechariah 10: 1-6)

We have already shown to you in an article in the past what the Great Tribulation was all about.

In this vision of the Apostle John in the book of Revelation with regard to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the focus really should be on the riders and the role that they will play and not on the horses.

These Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are actually high-ranking ministers in the PCG who became beasts in this end-time and caused great havoc to God’s people all over the world.

1st Seal – Rider of a White Horse

The first rider, mentioned in Revelation 6:2, rode a white horse.

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had abow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. (Rev. 6:1-2)

This first rider could have chosen to ride a different horse with a different color — a red or black horse perhaps, but he chose a white one for a reason.

This rider wanted to imitate Jesus Christ who was seen in Revelation 19:11 by the Apostle John riding a white horse. He wanted to portray himself as the savior of mankind.

But he was described as carrying a bow which is a symbol for lying and falsehood.

Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men. And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD. Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders. And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity. (Jeremiah 9:2-5)

This first rider was given a crown. A crown means rulership. This means that this rider was given a kingdom, dominion or authority over a certain region on earth.

So, he was initially given a dominion and then ventured out conquering, and to conquer.

The mindset of this first rider, who had tasted great power, was to put other kingdoms in subjection to him. He wanted to expand his dominion on earth.

Which top-ranking minister, in the past, matches the description given in this 6th chapter of Revelation?

We have shown in our past article entitled, “The Assyrian Unmasked!” a minister who had an ambitious plan of universal conquest.

Thus, this first rider, no doubt, was none other than the Assyrian, John Macdonald!

John Macdonald is the rider of the WHITE HORSE!

We have shown in our past articles how John Macdonald maneuvered to position his family to acquire top positions in the PCG ministry. He, together with his two sons, Brad and Kirk, were able to gain influence and power over two-thirds (2/3) of the region of the whole world.

John Macdonald goal was to take control of the whole world!

He wanted to “set his nest on high.” (Hab 2:9) And so, he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people: Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay! Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them? Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein. Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil! Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul. (Hab 2:4-10)

Habakkuk 2:5 tells us that he wanted to enlarge his desire. The word desire in Hebrew is nephesh which means a breathing creature. It means the soul or the self.

John Macdonald wanted to enlarge his own self! And so he went forth conquering and conquering until he was hindered in carrying out his depraved ambition.

Notice that what he pursued was exactly what Hell and Death aspired for. He aimed to enlarge his ownself just like Hell and Death.

He aspired to be what these two individuals wanted to be.

And so, we see in this prophecy in the book of Habakkuk that the goal of Death and Hell is to put all of God’s people in subjection under them. (Hab. 2:5)

2nd Seal – Rider of a Red Horse

In the second seal, the next rider in the vision was seen by the Apostle John riding a red horse, which color represents war.

And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. (Rev. 6:3-4)

The rider of this RED HORSE is none other than PCG Evangelist Alex Harrison.

It says in the prophecy that a GREAT SWORD has been given to him which indicates the vast authority and power was given to him over God’s Church to slaughter God’s people. Is it any coincidence that he is also called “THE TROUBLESHOOTER” of the PCG?

Look at what he did with that GREAT SWORD to the PCG Congregation in Trinidad and Tobago which was documented in another website. Alex Harrison through his minion, Samuel Seebran has wreaked havoc and removed the peace in the lives of the poor people of Trinidad and Tobago. Several PCG members were spiritually annihilated and suffered a GREAT TRIBULATION in the hands of Alex Harrison and Sam Seebran by allowing the brethren to betray and kill one another.

But prior to that, Harrison had already a history of taking the peace from God’s Church when he was yet the Regional Director of India in the year 2000.

Look at the several evidences being presented in one website of how Harrison has selected his officers in the field to build his army. Scrutinize the application forms of each ministers below and you will see how Harrison introduced carnal men to creep into God’s Church.

3rd Seal– Rider of a Black Horse

In the third seal, John saw another rider on a black horse.

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. (Rev. 6:5-6)

This rider was carrying a pair of balances. A balance is an instrument for weighing. It is also a means of judging or deciding. We can see from the description provided in verse 6 that there is unfairness in the use of the balances. Different measures or weights has to be paid with the same amount. And this practice applies only to wheat and barley but not to the oil and wine. Wheat, barley, oil, and wine are all products of a harvest. These are the fruits of the earth. Hence, these products represent the members in God’s church.

The meaning of the word hurt shows that this is all about the application of justice on God’s people. Strong’s Concordance defines the word hurt as follows: to beunjust, that is, (actively) dowrong(morally, socially or physically): – hurt, injure, be an offender, be unjust, (do, suffer, take) wrong.

Wheat and barley are fruits or products of lower value than oil and wine. Wheat and barley are symbolic of the poor in God’s church. While oil and wine represent the members who are rich.

For members classified as wheat and barley, the judgment or penalty, when they committed a mistake, is the same – a penny.

They are to be weighed the same. They are to be hurt the same. The penalty is usually suspension or disfellowshipment.

In contrast, the members classed as oil and the wine are not to be injured or offended. They are not to be penalized. They are not to be weighed.

“and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine”

The minister or the rider of this black horse was the promoter of this system of judgment applied to God’s people.

The rider of the BLACK HORSE is PCG Evangelist Wayne Turgeon.

Look closely at how he perfectly fulfilled the prophecy of dealing with unfairness in the use of the balances the poor PCG members, while on the other hand, he HURT NOT those who are rich.

In a recent PCG sermon it was stated how the non-PCG performers who do the Concert Series at God’s House [Armstrong Auditorium] gush and rave telling the HQ people how they were “treated like Kings” with fine dining and accommodations while they stayed at the Auditorium. I wonder if these people were told how minor age children were being tossed out in the street by orders from PCG ministry? Would they still be willing to perform for the Philadelphia Church of God?

I have witnessed much suffering amongst the youth in PCG. ONE GIRL in the congregation was told by Wayne Turgeon she could not go to the college because she was “TOO FAT” and did not “FIT THE PROPER IMAGE OF THE CHURCH.” Many of the youth are leaving PCG.

There are a lot of people with drinking problems in the PCG. One “CONTACT PERSON” in a Kentucky congregation sometimes comes to services high. But he attends Spokesman’s Club and is in good with the regime.

There are ministerial scandals (especially in the North West region) going on. ONE MINISTER was carrying on a two year affair with a woman in a congregation! He tried to get his wife to leave him. When that did not happen, he tried to convince the PCG that she was “crazy or demon possessed.” He took it to HQ and they suspended the wife. Then it came out about the affair and they kicked him out and let her back.

Also, J. C., A MEMBER, was doing security detail at a HQ function in Edmond, OK a few years ago. Grant Turgeon1 (son of Wayne Turgeon) came into an area off limits to people. When confronted by J. C., the little Turgeon said, “Do you know who I am? My Father is Wayne Turgeon.”Later, this member was accosted verbally by Wayne Turgeon for telling his son where to go and was suspended not long after.

Wayne Turgeon also have in his hand the list of the 25 ELITE PCG Ministers who strongly supported the work in Ireland to replace the work in Jerusalem which he announced last September 2013 that eventually led to the RICH and CULTURED environment of Edstone in Warwickshire England where the Druidic bard, William Shakespeare lived.

Then comes the fourth seal where the Apostle John saw a rider on a pale horse. Pale is green or somewhat greenish in color.

And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:7-8)

What is very striking about this part of the vision is that the rider of this pale horse has a name. This was the only instance that the rider of the horse was given a name or label by Apostle John. Notice that the previous riders of the first three seals had no names or labels whatsoever. But this rider of this pale horse has a name.

The rider of this pale horse was named Death!

What adds to the peculiarity of the vision is that, there was another rider following rider Death. And this rider was also named by the Apostle John.

This rider’s name is Hell!

Contrary to popular belief, there are actually two horsemen in this vision of the Fourth Seal. This fact is further ascertained by the word them in the middle of the verse.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:8)

The word “followed” is akoloutheo G190

Thayer’s Lexicon defines it as follows:

to follow one who precedes, join him as his attendant, accompany him

to join one as a disciple, become or be his disciple (side with his party)

While Strong’s Concordance renders it this way:

From G1 (as a particle of union and keleuthos (a road); properly to be in the same way with, that is, to accompany (specifically a disciple)

Consider this carefully: In this vision, A rider named Death is being ACCOMPANIED by another rider named Hell in a PALE HORSE. Therefore, we can say that the riders of this PALE HORSE are being JOINED as ONE as they sit on that SAME PALE HORSE!

Now, notice also that it is implied in this passage that the leader in this Fourth Seal is rider Death so he is the one in the driver’s seat so to speak. And the other rider Hell is just a follower or a disciple of rider Death thereforehe is just sitting on his back.

Here in this vision of John, we see that Death and Hell are the men Mr. Gerald Flurry has found as indicated in Psalms 116:3.

The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. (Psalms 116:3)

Who is Mr.Death? And, who is Mr.Hell? Who are these two horsemen of the Fourth Seal bringing sorrows and pains to Mr. Gerald Flurry and the entire PCG?

Remember that the riders of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse belong to the top echelon in the PCG Ministry today and in the past. Therefore, Mr. Death and Mr. Hell are in that category.

These riders of the fourth seal are none other than Mr. Gerald Flurry’s own son, Stephen Flurry and the Regional Director of UK/Europe, Brad Macdonald!

Stephen Flurry, who is the frontrunner in this Fourth Seal, is Death.

And Brad Macdonald, his follower or disciple, is Hell.

These two riders are the two individuals who chose a separate work in another region. They are Satan’s instruments in choosing a work in Edstone in Warwickshire, England over the work in Jerusalem.

Is it of any coincidence that even their profile photo in their Twitter accounts show a black and white images? Black is the color of darkness. And darkness is associated with the literal death (asleep) and hell (grave). What they have chosen as an image in their social media account has become a prophecy for them.

Stephen Flurry and Brad Macdonald, as earlier cited, are enlarging themselves and they want to gather the whole PCG to them (Hab. 2:5). They are drawing away the members, not to God, but to themselves as the Apostle Paul cautioned the elders of the church at Ephesus, “For I know this that after my departing to draw away disciples after themselves.” (Acts 20:29, 30).

They want people to look to them instead of Jesus Christ!

And as it happened before, it will happen again and again. History keeps on recurring.

Stephen and Brad are the men causing trouble and sorrows to Mr. Gerald Flurry.

And what great power they wield over God’s people. Here are some of the meanings of the word power,in Strong’s Concordance, to better understand the kind of power they exercise over God’s people: privilege, force, capacity, freedom, mastery (potentate, tokenofcontrol), delegated influence: – authority, jurisdiction, liberty, right, strength.

Notice the destructive power that was given to them.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:8)

They were given jurisdiction over the fourth part of the earth which is the region of Europe.

They were given the freedom to kill with sword or using God’s word in a wrong way.

Did you know that Brad Macdonald is also effecting already the revised no-contact policy in his region?

On one occasion, he approached a member who has a wife who used to attend services with him in the past. Brad demanded this member to leave his wife and children as soon as possible. But this member chose not to abandon his own family. He made a wise decision to stay with his wife and children and left the PCG instead.

But not all families survived just like the case of the Flory family in the US as shown in the opening part of this article. Their once happy family was destroyed by Cal Culpepper. What will happen to Cassie Flory and their children now? They just massacred them!

The PCG ministers, with Stephen Flurry in the driver’s seat, are wrecking families by dissolving marriages which they have no authority to do. (Mat. 19:6)

The revised no-contact ruling is already being enforced in Europe, the North-East region of the US and in other regions of the world.

But not in The Philippines!

Why do you think the Regional Director of Africa, Asia, and Oceania, Evangelist Alex Harrison and the other PCG ministers in the Philippines have not implemented yet this revised ruling in the Philippines? Why is The Philippines an exemption to the rule?

There are many cases in PCG Philippines wherein an active PCG member still lives with other members of the family who used to attend services in the past but have stopped attending or with other members who were cast out (suspended) by the ministry.

Why are these active members not being asked by the ministry yet to avoid contact with them?

It is a fact that the PCG Philippines membership is dwindling fast. They’re losing members quickly. They just lost a family to the A.R.K. of God quite recently.

Now, with regard to killing with hunger, as discussed earlier, God has been withholding the pouring out of revelations to Mr. Gerald Flurry because of Mr. Death who took control of God’s church with the support of Mr. Hell. The stream of oil has stopped and God’s people are now destitute of spiritual food.

One member who left the PCG not long ago said that he felt the hunger while he was still inside the PCG. He was not yet aware that there has been a famine of spiritual food for some time now in the PCG because of what Death and Hell and the other PCG ministers have done. These evil men are killing God’s people with famine.

Notice that in the latter part of the verse, it shows us that Stephen and Brad were also given the power to kill with the beasts of the earth. These beasts are the ministers who have devoured many of God’s people in this end-time just like Cal Culpepper.

We have already shown in our previous articles how the PCG ministers in this end-time have become beasts. Please read our articles, entitled, “The Prophetic Beast of the Book of Revelation (Part I)” and “The Four Great Beasts of Daniel 7 and the Everlasting Kingdom (The Beast Part 2)” for a detailed explanation.

And what great suffering and troubles Death and Hell and the beasts are bringing upon Mr. Gerald Flurry and the members of God’s church in the whole world.

A COVENANT WITH DEATH

The beasts or evil ministers in the PCG have made a covenant with Mr. Death, Stephen Flurry as indicated in the 28th chapter of the book of Isaiah.

Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: (Isaiah 28:14-15)

God tells these scorning men in this prophecy to listen to what He will do to them because they brag about their alliance with Stephen Flurry. They are saying,

“Well, we are in league with Stephen. And, with Brad, as our prophet, we are sure what will happen in the future.”

The word agreement means a beholder in vision. It means a seer or a prophet.

The PCG ministers regard Brad Macdonald as a prophet. They are convinced of his views of bible prophecies. They agree with him in the way he interprets bible prophecies. They are certain that what Brad say or write about prophecies will surely come to pass. Look at the recent prophecy he has written:

Hence, Mr. Death and Mr. Hell are their refuge, their place of safety!

They made lies and falsehood their protector. They have confidence in these two workers of darkness. They thought that when God’s overflowing scourge comes, they will be spared.

The word scourge means a whip or lash. This overflowing whip is talking about God’s severe punishment or calamity that will be brought upon them and cover them like flood. This refers to the plagues being sent by Him now as He recompense them for all the evil that they have committed against His own people.

Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. (Isaiah 28:17)

God is judging them according to the exact rule of law as what Barnes Commentary noted.

The expression, “Judgment also will I lay to the line,” means:

“The sense of this is, I will judge them according to the exact rule of law, as an architect frames everything according to the rule which he uses. In other words, there shall be no mercy intermingled. The line is used by a carpenter for measuring; the plummet consists of a piece of lead attached to a string, and is also used by carpenters to obtain a perpendicular line. A carpenter works exactly according to the lines which are thus indicated, or his frame would not be properly adjusted. So God says that he would judge the people of Jerusalem [PCG ministers] according to the exact rule, without any intermingling of mercy.”

The alliance which the PCG ministers have made with Stephen and their agreement with Brad, in whom they trusted, will not ensure their safety from what God is sending them. They will still be trodden down by God’s judgment.

And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. (Isaiah 28:18)

Their compact with Stephen will be cancelled. It will not take effect and be abolished. It will not cover or overlay what they have committed in God’s church. They too will be exposed for what they have done to God’s people.

From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report. (Isaiah 28:19)

The moment God’s judgment is issued out via a report, it will come upon them without delay. It will constantly affect them. It will sweep them like floods day after day, night after night. It will not stop until they are all carried away and drowned!

This ‘doctrine’ (report) or ‘prophetic message,’ will be an object of alarm, agitation or distress for them. They will be stricken with horror when they hear about it.

They will not be able to withstand it and stop its headway. As it overflows, it will take them away. They will be destroyed by it or be carried into captivity.

The Targum says:

“in the time of its passing over, it shall carry you captive:”

THE SHADOW OF DEATH

Now, notice the present state of God’s church today.

The PCG members believe that Mr. Gerald Flurry still has full control of the church but many don’t realize that his son, Stephen has already taken the driver’s seat from him. The whole church is now in the hands of Mr. Death. It is now under his shade or shadow. It has become the valley of the shadow of death.

A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. (Psalms 23:1-4)

Likewise, “thy servant,” Mr. Gerald Flurry, is now in the shadow of death! He is in the shadow of Stephen Flurry. His very own son eclipsed him. And the whole church is in darkness!

And our brethren in the PCG don’t see this. They don’t see that there’s no more order and no more light in God’s church as shown in the 10th chapter of the book of Job.

Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little, Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death; A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness. (Job 10:20-22)

They should have wondered about why God’s Apostle, recently, had requested them to seek God’s guidance on the next phase of His work which he never did in the past. And not only once did he ask the people to pray, but twice. The members should have pondered why God is not guiding Mr. Gerald Flurry anymore. And why there’s no more light.

The shadow of Stephen Flurry is causing darkness and disorder in the PCG. And so, in this end-time, God’s church has become Babylon because of his desire to enlarge himself. His desire is to draw God’s people to himself. And so far, he’s been successful in doing this.

The prophet Jeremiah wrote about all the evil that will come upon Babylon or God’s church today, the PCG.

So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written against Babylon. (Jeremiah 51:60)

In these prophecies, Jeremiah mentioned about an idol which the Babylonians worshipped.

BEL IN BABYLON

We wrote in our article “Mystery Babylon the Great” that Sheshach in Jeremiah 51:41 is a symbolic name for Babylon. And it means “your fine linen.”

How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! (Jeremiah 51:41)

But there’s another angle in looking at this phrase, “How is Sheshach taken!” Observe what Gill Commentary says about this expression (emphasis mine in bold).

“Jer 51:41How is Sheshach taken!…. Not the city Shushan, as Sir John Marsham thinks (e); but Babylon, as is plain from a following clause; and so the Targum,

“how is Babylon subdued!”

called Sheshach, by a position and commutation of letters the Jews call “athbash”; so Jarchi, Kimchi, and Abarbinel account for it; or else from their idol Shach, the same with Bel, which was worshipped here, and had a temple erected for it; and where an annual feast was kept in honour of it, called the Sacchean feast; …”

Sheshach which refers to Babylon may also refer to their idol Shach. And idol Shach is also the same as their idol Bel who was mentioned in verse 44 of the same chapter.

And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. (Jeremiah 51:44)

Who is this Bel in Babylon?

Bel, according to Strong’s Concordance, was the Baal of the Babylonians, who was the same as Belus according to Adam Clarke’s Commentary on the Bible and John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible.

Jer 51:44

I will punish Bel in Babylon – Bel or Belus was their supreme deity. (CLARKE)

Jer 51:44And I will punish Bel in Babylon,…. The idol of the Babylonians, who had a temple in Babylon, where he was worshipped: the same is called Belus by Aelianus (g), Curtius (h), and Pausanias (i); perhaps the same Herodian (k) calls Belis, and says some take him to be Apollo; for more of him; see Gill on Isa_46:1; and See Gill on Jer_50:2; who was punished when his temple was demolished, and plundered of its wealth; this golden image of Belus was broke to pieces, and the gold of it carried away… (GILL)

So, Bel is a title rather than a name. Bel is the “lord” or “master” in Babylon or the PCG.

Even in Brown-Driver-Briggs’ Hebrew Definitions,Bel means “lord.”

The phrase, “Bel in Babylon” translates to “The lord or master in Babylon.”

And who is the lord or master in Babylon today? Or, who is the lord or master in the PCG?

We have shown earlier in this article and in many of our previous articles that Mr. Gerald Flurry is not calling the shots in the PCG anymore but his son Stephen. Stephen Flurry has already taken control of the whole church. Therefore, “Bel in Babylon” is “Stephen Flurry in the PCG!”

Thus, we can rephrase verse 44 to:

And I will punish Stephen Flurry in the PCG, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon [the PCG] shall fall. (Jeremiah 51:44)

And since Bel is Shach or Sheshach of verse41, we can rephrase verse 41 to

How is Stephen Flurry taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! (Jeremiah 51:41)

The word taken, in Strong’s Concordance, means to catch (in a net, trap or pit).

Hence, verse 41, translates now to:

How is Stephen Flurry caught! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! (Jeremiah 51:41)

Stephen Flurry is now caught! His identity and evil works are laid bare in these prophecies of God. He is now exposed to the members of the PCG. God exposes him in the pages of the Bible!

Let’s understand more what Stephen has done.

Notice now the word surprised in the phrase, “and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised!” In Strong’s Concordance, it means to manipulate. Figuratively, it means, to use unwarrantably.

Who were manipulated or used unwarrantably by Stephen? We know that the words, “the praise of the whole earth” refers to God’s church or God’s people.

Therefore, Stephen Flurry manipulated or used unwarrantably the people of God.

To our brethren in the PCG, “How was it possible that Stephen Flurry manipulated you?”

Here are some synonyms for the word unwarrantably or unwarrantable:

Unforgivable, Unpardonable, Unjustifiable

What Stephen did was unforgivable or unpardonable! The whole church was manipulated by him! God’s people must wake up to the reality. They were used by Stephen unwarrantably. And so, the whole PCG has become an astonishment to the whole world! A desolation! A ruin!

Notice another important aspect in verse 44 which shows what is happening right now in the PCG today.

And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. (Jeremiah 51:44)

The whole PCG believes that Mr. Gerald Flurry still has total control of the church. They don’t have the slightest idea that his son, Stephen, is now secretly leading the whole church. Verse 44 shows that the nations or the whole PCG is flowing together to him and not anymore to Mr. Gerald Flurry anymore. Stephen Flurry is using God’s people in order to enlarge himself. And his follower, Brad Macdonald, is supporting him in his plan.

And so God’s punishment for them is coming!

BEL AND NEBO

The 46th chapter of Isaiah shows us the punishment that will happen to Bel in Babylon.

Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast. They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity. (Isaiah 46:1-2)

The idol Bel is seen here with another idol named Nebo.

The Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge (TSK) tells us that Bel and Nebo are the two principal idols of Babylon.

“Bel: Bel, called Belus by the Greek and Roman writers, is the same as Baal; and Nebo is interpreted by Castell and Norberg of Mercury; the two principal idols of Babylon.”

Here is what John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible says about Bel and Nebo.

“Isa 46:1Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth,….

These are names of the idols of Babylon. Bel is by some thought to be the contraction of Baal, the god of the Phoenicians, called by them Beel; so “Beelsamin” (h), in the Phoenician language, is Lord of heaven: but rather this is the Belus of the Babylonians, who was a renowned king of them, and after his death deified; whom Nebuchadnezzar, according to Megasthenes (i), calls Belus his progenitor, and by whom Babylon was walled about. This idol is, no doubt, the same with Jupiter Belus, who had a temple in Babylon with gates of brass, and which was in being in the times of Herodotus (k), as he reports. This name is sometimes taken into the names of their kings, as Belshazzar or Beltesbazaar.

Nebo was another of their idols, an oracular one, from whom, by its priests, prophesies of things future were pretended to be given out; for it may have its name from נבא, “to prophesy”, and answers to the Apollo or Mercury of other nations.”

So, Nebo was their idol who was the source of prophecies pertaining to their future. He was a prophet.

Nebo, in Brown-Driver-Briggs’ Hebrew Definitions, means “Prophet.”

Do you see the connection to the present-day Babylon? Do you see how this all applies to the PCG?

Bel is Stephen Flurry and Nebo is Brad Macdonald!

The lord or master, is Stephen Flurry. And the prophet, represents Brad Macdonald.

Here’s more of what John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible says about Bel and Nebo.

“It is said of both these deities, that they “stooped” or “bowed down”; being taken down from the high places where they were set upright, and looked grand and majestic, and where they might be seen and worshipped by the people.”

Likewise, Stephen and Brad are set in high place of Edstone. They also looked grand and majestic in the eyes of the PCG members. They are look upon as the standards, the role models in the church. The members copy what they set as benchmarks.

John Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible adds,

“… their idols are like to beasts, which defile themselves with their dung as they do; and so the Targum renders it,

The idols in the PCG are not the same as the idols in Babylon in the past who were lifeless. Today’s idols in God’s church are very much alive! And these idols are like beasts devouring many of God’s people.

God is punishing Death and Hell now. Very soon Stephen Flurry will bow down and Brad Macdonald will stoop. They will fall and be broken.

Here is how Barnes Commentary describes the scene.

“The word ‘stoopeth,’ means that it had fallen down, as when one is struck dead he falls suddenly to the earth; and the language denotes conquest, where even the idols so long worshipped would be thrown down.

The scene is in Babylon, and the image in the mind of the prophet is that of the city taken, and the idols that were worshipped thrown down by the conqueror, and carried away in triumph.”

This is a prophecy which they won’t be able to escape (Isaiah 46:2).

Stephen and Brad have been caught. They are gone into captivity.

NEBO PROTECTS THE CROWN

Bel or Stephen, in Jeremiah 51:44, is described as a devourer of God’s people.

And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. (Jeremiah 51:44)

But, what Bel or Stephen has done to God’s people as shown in this verse is also imputed to King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon in Jeremiah 51:34.

Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out. The violence done to me and to my flesh beupon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say. (Jeremiah 51:34-35)

Who is Nebuchadrezzar now in this prophecy?

We know that Nebuchadrezzar or Nebuchadnezzar was the King of Babylon. Since Stephen Flurry, in this prophecy, is characterized as idol Bel or Shach, the supreme deity in Babylon, therefore, he is also the king of Babylon. King Nebuchadrezzar or Nebuchadnezzar now applies to him. That’s why, the same accusation was ascribed to the king of Babylon in verse 34.

This is further proven by what the name Nebuchadrezzar or Nebuchadnezzar means.

The name Nebuchadnezzar or Nebuchadrezzar means “may Nebo protect the crown.”

Nebo, as earlier mentioned, means prophet. And this figure applies to Brad Macdonald.

Thus, the meaning of Nebuchadnezzar or Nebuchadrezzar becomes:

“may the prophet or Brad Macdonald protect the crown.”

But which crown?

We have shown in many of our articles that Stephen Flurry has taken the crown or control of the church from his dad, Mr. Gerald Flurry. And his name, Stephen means crown!

Hence, the meaning “may Nebo protect the crown,” translates to:

“may Brad Macdonald protect Stephen Flurry!”

Or, in essence, “Brad Macdonald protects Stephen Flurry!”

Isn’t this what we see happening in Edstone today? Isn’t this the kind of setup of the leadership in God’s church today?

Brad Macdonald is protecting Stephen Flurry!

Brad is in full support of Stephen’s control of God’s people. He is assisting his lord as they gather all people to themselves.

God has revealed to us through the meaning of the name Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, the real structure of the leadership in the PCG today.

This is another proof that God’s church today in this end-time has turned into Babylon the Great.

Remember that Brad is an advocate or follower of Stephen. This is exactly the imagery shown to us in the Fourth Seal or the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse.

Hell is following Death in wiping out God’s people. Remember that they were given power to annihilate God’s people.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:8)

HEAD AND TAIL, BRANCH AND RUSH

God tells us in another prophecy in the book of Isaiah, the swiftness of their destruction. Their downfall will happen in an instant.

Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day. The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he isthe tail. (Isaiah 9:14-15)

In this prophecy, Death and Hell are symbolized as Head and Tail or Branch and Rush.

The head is described as “the ancient and honourable.” While the tail is “the prophet that teaches lies.”

In Brown-Driver-Briggs’ Hebrew Definitions (BDB), the word ancient means “elder (of those having authority).” In Strong’s Concordance, this word means the elder or eldest with respect to age. This indicates that the ancient is the senior of the two.

The word honourable can mean to be lifted up, be exalted, to lift oneself up, rise up, or exalt oneself (BDB).

The phrase, “head and tail” is “proverbial for the highest and lowest” according to Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown Commentary (JFB). And the phrase, “branch and rush” is “another image for the same thought. The branch is elevated on the top of the tree: the rush is coarse and low.”

The head is the elder who exalted himself. He is the branch who grabbed the highest office from Mr. Gerald Flurry and set himself as the king of Babylon or the PCG. The head represents Mr. Death, Stephen Flurry.

And the tail, as the rush, is the prophet who teaches lies applies to Mr. Hell, Brad Macdonald.

God will cut off Death and Hell from His church. Their fall or destruction will happen in just one day!

It is indicated in verse 16 that Head and Tail or Branch and Rush are the leaders of this people (PCG) who are causing them to sin.

For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them aredestroyed. (Isaiah 9:16)

And what is the effect of their leadership? God’s people who are being led by them are destroyed!

God’s people must heed this warning very seriously. The men who are leading them are prophesied to be destroyed by God very soon.

And notice what Death and Hell are doing today.

And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm: Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. (Isaiah 9:20-21)

Death and Hell are swallowing up their own people left and right without any satisfaction.

God’s people may not see it this way. But they are now already engrossed to the system of Stephen and Brad. These men are the purveyors of pagan practices in God’s church such as Irish Dancing, Mother’s Day, and Cremation.

Stephen even changed Jesus Christ’s words in Matthew 5:48 in his Daily Trumpet Radio Show which is a corruption and watering down of God’s teachings.

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. (Matthew 5:48)

He carelessly allude the phrase, “Be you therefore perfect” to “Be you therefore cultured” which is a total reversal of what Jesus Christ wanted to drive to His disciples. And God’s people just accepted his incessant lies.

Notice the symbolism used in the phrase, “Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah.”

In this passage, Manasseh represents Stephen Flurry. He is an American. And we know that America or The United States of America, as explained in Mr. Herbert Armstrong’s booklet, The United States and Britain in Prophecy, is the modern-day Manasseh.

In like manner, Ephraim is symbolic of Brad Macdonald because he is of British lineage. Britain or The United Kingdom, according to the same book, The United States and Britain in Prophecy, is the present-day Ephraim.

And, as we have shown many times in our articles, Judah is representative of the PCG.

Hence, we can see a clear picture here of what’s going on inside the PCG today.

Stephen and Brad together are against the PCG!

And since Mr. Gerald Flurry is the anointed messenger of God for the last era of His church, Death and Hell together are against him and the whole membership.

Thus, they are against the Almighty God and Jesus Christ!

To our beloved brethren in the PCG, can’t you see the machination of these two wicked ministers? Your leaders are against you! They are gobbling you up without end. They will never be satisfied as expressed very plainly in this prophecy. You must wake up to reality before it’s too late.

THE FATE OF DEATH AND HELL

God’s people must know the ultimate end of Stephen Flurry and Brad Macdonald. Notice what God has prophesied about these two dreadful instruments of Satan the Devil.

And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:12-15)

We are now in this stage when God’s house is being judged by God.

The dead in this verse 12 of Revelation 20 refers to God’s church which became the valley of dry bonesas prophesied in the 37th chapter of the book of Ezekiel.

Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: (Ezekiel 37:11)

The small and great, which represents the members and ministers in God’s church, are now standing before God being given judgment according to what they have done.

And the books were opened.

The scene in this verse is exactly the same as the passage in Daniel 7:10.

A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. (Daniel 7:10)

Jesus Christ as the great Judge was seated on the bench and His Two Witnesses were also seated to administer judgment.

These books consist mainly of the major prophetic books in the Old Testament and also the book of Revelation. These books were previously sealed or closed to the understanding of God’s people. And God had to open the understanding of these books to His Two Witnesses.

Death and Hell including their cohorts were given judgment according to what God has prophesied in these books. They were given a verdict for their wickedness and for devouring God’s people. These books pronounced a guilty verdict for their evils.

I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds. Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, anda wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased. (Jeremiah 5:5-6)

God is using the Remembrancers to recompense those murderers for the many sins they have committed against His people.

Now, notice that there was another book on the scene in Revelation 20:12.

“and another book was opened, which is the bookof life:”

This book was characterized as the book “which is of life.”

What book, which is “of life”, do you think this is referring to? What book in this end-time came on the scene which contains the events that transpired in God’s church? What book covers the many transgressions, abominations, and sins committed by Death and Hell and the other leaders in God’s church? What book has shown God’s people what to do in this time of great trial of the church?

There is only one book that covers all these descriptions. It is “The Last End: A Book of Remembrance.”

The book of life is The Book of Remembrance!

God has given this book to show evidences of what Death and Hell, with the connivance of their allies, have committed that brought God’s church to destruction. It is a book that will open the eyes of God’s people and move them to repent towards God for all the evils that they have committed. It shows God’s people how to discern the righteous from the wicked.

SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY

It was mentioned earlier that Stephen with Brad have swallowed up God’s people.

And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. (Jeremiah 51:44)

Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out. The violence done to me and to my flesh beupon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say. (Jeremiah 51:34-35)

The above verses show us that Stephen, with Brad, has now full control of all kingdoms or dominion in God’s church.

The time will come shortly when Jesus Christ will return and take back what Stephen and Brad have gathered to themselves.

And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. (Rev. 11:15)

The kingdoms of this world is referring to the various dominions now under the control of Stephen, Brad and their allies.

Stephen’s subjugation of the various kingdoms in God’s church will be taken away from him once the seventh angel sounded. The collapse of his rule is coming very soon. All these dominions then will become under the control and authority of Jesus Christ.

And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. (Rev. 16:16-21)

As Stephen with Brad have swallowed up God’s people, they will be swallowed up as well when Jesus Christ returns. God will give us the victory through Jesus Christ.

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.(I Cor. 15:53-57)

The time is coming when Stephen Flurry and Brad Macdonald will have to give up God’s people whom they have swallowed up. Their hold on God’s people as prisoners will vanish.

And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Rev. 20:14-15)

What a gruesome end for these two evil men, Stephen Flurry and Brad Macdonald who have caused the destruction of God’s true church in this end. They may not believe this, but God has already prophesied their doom in the pages of the Bible.

Picture this in your minds, fellow brethren in the Philadelphia Church of God. The leading ministers you are sticking to and giving your support are already doomed!

Their horrendous fate is already known. They are prophesied to die the second death!

And what about the end of the others who were not found written in the book of life? – those individuals who did not believe the prophecies written in The Book of Remembrance, those ministers who branded this book as a dissident literature and instructed the members to burn this book or throw it away.

It has come to our attention that Mr. Pedrito Cara, Mr. Broderick Tongco, Mr. Kirk Macdonald, and Mr. Benedict Marquez under the leadership of the former Regional Director John Macdonald and the present Regional Director Mr. Alex Harrison have all instructed the members of the PCG Philippines to destroy this book of life. The instruction to destroy the book of life was also implemented across the globe. All of them who had done this will have to pay for it. They all will be thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire represents the second death. They will all die the second death from which there is never to be a resurrection to eternal life.

And what about those members who abide by the directive of these ministers? They are classified as those who “was not found written in the book of life.”

And whosoever was not foundwritten in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15)

Notice that this vision is talking about the last end vision of Daniel in the 12th chapter wherein the same book of life was mentioned.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. (Daniel 12:1-3)

This book of life was the key for the deliverance of God’s people. In Strong’s Concordance, the word written in Hebrew means the same as in the Greek to grave; by implication to write (describe, inscribe, prescribe, subscribe): – describe, record, prescribe, subscribe, write (-ing, -ten).

Here we see the other meanings of the word written. One of them is the word subscribe.

The word subscribe in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary means to assent to or support.

And the word assent means:

To agree to something especially after thoughtful consideration : concur

Therefore, those who will be delivered are those who agree, after thoughtful consideration, to the contents of the book of life.

On the other hand, those who did notagree or concur to what is written in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire.

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15)

Or, this may be rephrased to:

“And whosoever was not found agreeing to the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”

God’s people may not take this seriously, but God has already given a verdict for those who just took this book of life for granted. They’re all going to die eternally!

THE HEAVENS DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD

On page 16 of our Bible Hymnal is a beautiful song entitled “The Heavens God’s Glory Do Declare.” The lyrics were taken from the 19th chapter of the book of Psalms.

This psalm shows the importance of warning “thy servant” and the members of the PCG by way of God’s work through the Gentiles which He raised up in the wilderness. This psalm is a prophecy about the work of The Remembrancers in this end-time.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. (Psalms 19:1)

The heavens and earth in this psalm are not the natural or physical heaven and earth that we see. These are in symbols.

Heavens signify, symbolically, the ruling government or power – that is the whole assembly of the ruling powers. Heavens is symbolic of God’s ministry. We know that the natural heaven stands over and rules the earth. Therefore, the earth represents the members in God’s church.

Verse 1 of Psalms 19 tells us that God’s ministry in The Remembrancers is now proclaiming His glory and His handiwork. But why not anymore with the ministry in His own church, the PCG?

The vision of the Apostle John in the 21st chapter of the book of Revelation gives us an answer.

NEW HEAVEN, NEW EARTH

In John’s vision of a new Jerusalem, he saw a new heaven and a new earth. This is talking about a new government and people. This is referring to a new kingdom or dominion. A new group or dominion emerged on the scene.

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. (Revelation 21:1)

John saw this new ministry and people of God because the present ministry in the PCG and its people has turned away or transgressed! And it was Jesus Christ who effected this change in His own church. This is further confirmed when He says in verse 5 that He makes everything new.”

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. (Rev. 21:5)

But who comprise this new ministry of God? To whom is this new heaven referring to? Notice what God says to His Two Witnesses whom He calls as Jacob and Israel in the book of Isaiah. To know more about these two individuals, please read our article entitled, “Cyrus, the Ravenous Bird from the East and the Two Witnesses.”

Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: whenI call unto them, they stand up together. (Isaiah 48:12-13)

God says that He has spanned the heavens. The word spanned means to extend, spread,spread out, or stretch out. God extended over a wide area His ministry because He intended to call His Two Witnesses who are in far country. And so, God called them and they both stood up together. Now, these two individuals, with the help of spiritual Cyrus, are now declaring the glory of God. And they were called for this purpose.

Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them. (Isaiah 42:5-9)

And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified. (Isaiah 49:3)

The 51st chapter of the book of Isaiah shows the same prophecy.

And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people. Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of his fury; thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out. There is none to guide her among all the sons whomshe hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons thatshe hath brought up. These twothings are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee? (Isaiah 51:16-19)

Here, the Great God has put His words in His Witnesses’ mouth and hid them that He may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth. Or, that He may make them a new kingdom or polity.

Jerusalem, in verse 17, which has drunk the cup of God’s fury refers to the PCG. It is the formerJerusalem. Now, God has planted a new heaven and laid the foundations of a new earth. He has established a New Jerusalem which refers to our group, The ARK of God Foundation.

Also, in another prophecy in the 65th chapter of Isaiah, God said that He creates a new heavens and a new earth.

Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not. Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name: That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. (Isaiah 65:12-18)

Verse 15 even shows that God will call his servants by another name. Thus, God has given this new kingdom another name which is The A.R.K. of God Foundation, Inc. This New Jerusalem which God has created, as pointed out in verse 18, rejoices before Him and made her people a joy.

God’s handiwork is seen now in this firmament or expansion or extension of the sky or ministry.

This is all God’s doing. This is his creation or His work. He is the one who has made it possible. This is His achievement.

Notice how God’s handiwork is declared to His own church.

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. (Psa. 19:2-3)

Every day, God’s new ministry proclaims His work but not verbally. There is no speech nor language. Their voice is not heard!

The reason why their voice or speech is not heard is not because they are unable to talk. They are not heard because it is prophesied that their voice is not to be heard in God’s church.

Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.(Isaiah 42:1-2)

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, (Psalms 19:4)

But their line or the medium they are using to declare God’s prophecies can reach the whole world. God’s message is declared through the Web. You have to go online in order to know God’s handiwork, His statutes, His prophecies and His judgment. (See Psalms 19:7-10) And through this means, Mr. Gerald Flurry and God’s church is being warned.

Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. (Psalms 19:11)

God has shown Mr. Gerald Flurry and His people a way out from the prison house of Death and Hell. God’s help is now being extended to Mr. Gerald Flurry and God’s people through the firmament which now shows God’s handiwork.

In the 17th chapter of the book of Psalms, God also shows how “thy servant” will be delivered from these wicked men.

Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which isthy sword: From men which are thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world (MEN OF LIFE), which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes. (Psalms 17:13-14)

The words “which is” in verse 13 that were added by Bible translators destroy the essence of the last part of the passage. These words should not be included in the passage which has a colon mark at the end of the verse which means that the thought continues to the next verse.

Thy sword refers to God’s men who are His hand or instruments in thy servant’s deliverance. These men are called here the “men of life.” They are the men whom God fills with bountiful revelations in this end-time – the men whom God used to write the book of life, “The Last End: A Book of Remembrance.”

Mr. Gerald Flurry’s present state may seem abysmal and hopeless. But God will deliver him soon and he will be able to walk again before the Almighty God in the land of the living.

For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living. (Psalms 116:8-9)

What a very hopeful end for thy servant, Mr. Gerald Flurry and for everyone who will heed the warning of God in these prophecies.

Zerubbabel Signet

"In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the Lord, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the Lord of hosts." (Haggai 2:23)

Zechariah 4 Vision

"And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep. And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof." (Zechariah 4:1--3)
